Cotswolds Walking Tours

Walk the Cotswolds

Explore England’s idyllic countryside with our Cotswolds walking tours. Hike or stroll through rolling landscapes, lush woodland and green valleys. Visit the bustling market towns and exquisite lesser-known villages with beautiful Cotswold stone, thatched roofs and teashops to die for.

For a unique experience, explore the Cotswolds from tip to toe and walk the 102 miles of the Cotswold Way National Trail.

Along the way, discover the nearby sites of historic Oxford, Stonehenge and the Roman city of Bath.

Staying in cosy pubs and handpicked hotels, led by experienced local guides and all within a short distance from London, this is the perfect way to experience rural England.

Walk The Cotswolds FAQs

Where are the Cotswolds?

The best way into the Cotswolds from London and most major cities is by a direct train from Paddington into Oxford, Moreton-in-Marsh or Bath Spa.

Our trips begin from mainline stations so you can arrive relaxed, refreshed and ready to start your tour. If you prefer to drive, please confirm with our team the best place to park for each tour.

Can I join a tour as a solo traveller?

Of course! All our trips are open for single travellers to join. You will have a great time on our walking tours whether travelling on your own, as a couple, family or group, meeting like-minded people on our guided trips, or choosing your own adventure on our self-guided tours. “As a single female, I would not hesitate to go on another Active England trip as a solo traveller”.

How hilly are the Cotswolds?

The Cotswolds are a range of hills, with its name stemming from ‘Cote’ meaning sheep enclosure and ‘wold’ meaning hills. There are therefore lots of hills and incredible views from the top! However, you will able to miss out some of the steeper inclines – or add in some hillier walk for those looking to stretch their legs. There are routes for everyone and with our routes your guide will tailor your tour to your preferences.

Why choose a self-guided holiday?

With exceptionally well-planned routes, our self-guided tours are designed to suit the independent traveller or groups of travellers; those who wish to travel at their own pace and speed. With Ride With GPS and maps, we detail all of the points of interests, lunch stops, cafes – and of course pubs! Cycle or walk at your leisure, safe in the knowledge that a support team and emergency support vehicle is always on standby, and your luggage will be waiting for you in your accommodation each evening. We provide hikers with walking poles, while cyclists are given a fully equipped bike, with the option of an e-bike if preferred.
